Syllable Decomposition

avion

This word was originally a proper name, created around 1875 by its inventor Clément Ader, from the Latin word avis ('bird') and the suffix -on (patented in 1890). It may have been influenced by the word 'aviation', created as early as 1863, also from the word avis. The word was only commonly used after World War I (until then, 'aeroplane' was used).
